Enough of saying where it should be!

Please I need some help here!  How should it *look*?!?!?!?!
[unless I have a buncha notes in front of me I don't know]
.... I know!  Unless someone says otherwise, I'll copy OpenGL :)
[support Z-buffers, W-buffers, bitmaps, bitmapsets (1.2) :]
or should it be display-Z-buffer; display-W-buffer; display-bitmap
(support >1 frame) ?????

And how should display-targets manage data?

*sigh*

G'day, eh? :)
